Purpose and Mission

Catholic Youth Ministry Sports seeks to gather young people for athletic competition so that Gospel values may be witnessed. The mission of CYM Sports is to evangelize through athletics. It invites parishes to make the most of the opportunities athletic competition provides for the faithful to minister to and with youth. When doing so, CYM Sports keeps youth connected with the Church and helps them see the Eucharist being lived out in the lives of adults.

Both young people and adults are challenged not to compete for the sake of winning, but for the sake of participating. Christ-like behavior, conduct, spirit, attitude, and language are expected at all times from the coaches, players, officials, and spectators.
